The L92 fit nicely in the chassis along with the Bowler Performance 4L65E transmission.   Here's the chassis with suspension, engine,  transmission, and Currie rear axle in place.     Next we turn to the body where we had the underside media blasted to reveal the floor and trunk floor holes... we're going to epxoy the bottomside for the Power Tour and pop the body off the frame to complete the floors and quarter panels after the Power Tour.   A new smaller alternator from a 4.8 liter Chevrolet truck provides more hood clearance than the 6.2 liter version.    After some light bodywork and PPG K36 Prima epoxy surfacer, we shot some color on the body.    PPG Deltron basecoat in Charcoal Metallic and Garnet Red were sprayed to create the cool 2-tone scheme, designed to shrink the large proportions of the GTO.    Finally, some shots of the Wilwood brake kit and fittings and brake line from YearOne.
